This story appears to be true (Yahoo news reported the discovery in January 2019), I learned about the unreliability of the site last month when someone posted a story about an African city that pre-dates the Common Era which had been debunked elsewhere. So not saying it's completely unreliable, but it's advisable to fact check anything you read on the site.
